Has any one hooked the Garmin Striker 7SV to the Minn Kota Terrovas built in transducer with success. Minn Kota says their not sure if it will work and cant tell me what connector to use to hook it up to the trolling motor. Also I guess I need some kind of coupler to hook both transducers...

After running the Tracker MVX 1648 for a few months I will have to say she is doing quite well. After bumping a few stumps in the creek sliding over a few sand bars in the river and pounding quite a few waves on the lake I have saw nothing negative.

Have been rigging out this new set up and found it works really well for its intended purpose, fishing skinny water. The little Tohatsu makes more power than I thought and will actually plane the boat just me no gear. I fish the local creek and a lot of shallow water and the boat being light as...
